SOLVED:
The issue is with the hamachi client, hamachi is hi-jacking all of the 5.0.0.0/8 address block
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamachi_(software)#Criticism
http://b.logme.in/2012/11/07/changes-to-hamachi-on-november-19th/
The fix on Mac
LogMeIn Hamachi Preferences Settings Advanced Peer Connections IP protocol mode IPv6 only (default is both)
If you can only connect to some of your network over IPv4 this 'fix' will NOT work for you
-----
A few weeks ago I started using a service - https://semaphoreapp.com
I think they made DNS changes a week ago and ever since I cannot access the site from my Mac OSX Lion (10.7.4) machine (my main development machine)
but I can access the site from other machines on my network
ipad
windows machine
MacMini (10.6.8)
After some google searching I tried both of these
dscacheutil -flushcache
sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
but no go, I've contacted semaphoreapp as well, but nothing so far - also of interest, one of my colleagues has the exact same problem, cannot access via Mac OSX Lion but can via windows machine, we work remotely and are not on the same ISP
some additional info
Lion (10.7.4) cannot access site

any ideas?
EDIT: adding tcpdump

sudo tcpdump -v -i en0 dst semaphoreapp.com

above output after Request timeout for icmp_seq 25 or 30 times from ping. I don't know much about tcpdump, but to me it doesn't seem like the ping requests are leaving my machine?
